    Has anyone found a way to stop the students ability to log in and out to and gain XP on events that they have already visited in the same 24 hour time period. This is a great mod, but I have student that have cracked the code so to speak on getting points on the same activity over and over regardless of the time cheat blocking that I set. Also a complete list of event names in long form would be a great addition of information for people wishing to narrow the focus on awarding points, say on competition of lessons and not just for answering a question in a lesson.

    Hello, I'm using the plugin "Level up". I want to give points to my students only when they score more than 80% in a quiz, Is it possible?

    Dan, there is an issue to make the cheat guard more resilient to students' trickeries: https://github.com/FMCorz/moodle-block_xp/issues/52 Feel free to comment with your thoughts and support.

    Hi there! I've been trying to install this plugin to test it, but I keep getting a generic 500 Internal Server Error when I try to use it. I'm not sure where to start debugging. I searched with Google, but couldn't find any results.

    Here's what happens: I installed Level up! I see the block on my course page (Level up! + a blue star + some text). I click 'View the ladder' or 'Settings' and then I get the Internal Server Error message.

    Any thoughts on how to start figuring out what's wrong?

    Moodle version: Moodle 3.0.3+ (Build: 20160426)
    Level up! version: 2.2.0

    Hi Erin,

    I will try to look into this bug. Though, could you try to get your administrator to give us information about the error, they should find that in their logs.

    Cheers,
    Fred

    Hi, Fred. In response to the above:

    > Hi there! I've been trying to install this plugin to test it, but I keep getting a generic 500 Internal Server Error when I try to use it. I'm not sure where to start debugging. I searched with Google, but couldn't find any results.

    Yeah, I should've checked my logs. All my permissions were wrong. They were set to 0777. I tried setting a few files to 0644, but I was still getting errors. Then I remembered that I'd used the Moodle installer (from the admin back-end) and that I'd had permissions problems with it before. So I just used FTP to upload to reset all the permissions.

    And that worked!

    Thanks again. This looks like an awesome mod.

    Re-bonjour,
    je ne sais pas si la question a déjà été posée, je me permets donc de (re)demander : y a-t-il un moyen d'exporter le classement de Level Up dans un fichier Excel, CSV ou autre ?
    Ce plugin est toujours aussi intéressant à exploiter, un grand bravo pour votre travail ! smile

    Bonjour Valentin,

    Non, à ce jour il n'y a pas moyen d'exporter le classement, mais cela pourrait se faire. Pourriez-vous créer un ticket sur github? https://github.com/FMCorz/moodle-block_xp/issues

    To this day, exporting the leaderboard is not possible, but that could be done. Would you mind raising an issue on github? https://github.com/FMCorz/moodle-block_xp/issues

    Merci ! smile

    Hello,

    Our Admin just enabled your plugin and I am trying to use in for one of my fall classes.

    Is there a way to have the points of a graded assignment be translated into experience points?

    Thanks,
    John
